nnurtant Discovery OF Paintings.

Impurtant Discovery OF Paintings.
The London Christian Globe states
that a very remarkable discovery has
recently been made at Greenwich, and
some gems of rare value have been
brought to light. These consist of valu-
able oil paintings by Hogsrth and Sir
James Thornhill, whose daughter was
married to Hogarth. They were dis
covered IN an Old butchers shop IN
Church Street in that town; and it APP
pears that while painting his magniti-
cent work Of art on the ceiling of the
dome Of Greenwich Hospital, Sir James
Ihornhill lived in this house. This dis
coVery consists Of twenty-seven panels,
and those by ThOrnhill are entirely sea
scapes, representing men-Of-war OF the
type OF the period in action, while those
by HOgarth are allegorical pictures.
Some Of the panels are signed by Sir
James Ihornhll. This house, in which
Sir James resided, was originally built
OF wood. In course OF time the greater
part Of the wooden structure was de-
mohshed and replaced by brick edl-
nee, which was afterwards converted
INTO butchers shop. The particular
room, however, containing these panels
was left intact. The butcher painted all
the panels over rich drab stone color,
ana 50 they have remained for Years.
Inc FarnIsh on them, however, was so
hard lhat they are entirely uninlured,
ana the paint having peeled oil, they
are now n almost as perfect state as
#hen they were painted. Some Of them
are as large as feet inches by feet 8
inches. the others smaller

The Care of the Hands.

A little ammonia or borax IN the wa

water Just Iukewarn, will keep the skin
clean and soft. A little oatmeal mixed
with the water will whitcn the hands.
Many people use glyceriue on their
hands when they 90 10 bed, wearing
gloves to keep the bedding clean; but
glycennc makes some skin harsh and
red. These Deople should rub their
hands with dry oatmeal and wear gloves
IN bed. The best preparation for the
hands is white Of Egg, with a grain Of
alum dissolved in it, "Roman toilet

HOUSEKEEPING.
NIIIIIIIll,IllI.

Simmering really is not near to boiling
point, but simply hot enough to coagulate
the albumen and soften the tibrIn. " hen
we say a boiled" leg of mutton, or boiled"
beef, we mean one that has been cooked,
not boiled. When it is once fairly UNDER
stood that meat should not be boiled, but
merely cooked by immersion in water
raised to the maximum temperature of $50
degrees Fahrenheit, and fit can be further
understood that water cannot under erdin-
airy atmospheric pressure be raised TO a
higher temperature than 2l2 degrees, no
matter how violent the boiling, our meat
viii then he served tender and our potatoes
not cooked to pieces. In all ordinary
cookery simmering $50 degrees is more
effective than violent boiling at 2I2 de-
grees. The heat that is applied to do
more than the smallest degree of simmer
ing is simply wasted in converting water
into useless steam. We have often been
amused ut the ignorance of many persons
in regard TO this subject.
For instance. if stewed chicken is or lered
and happens TO he late, 1t is cut apart rs
quickly as possible, thrown into boiling
water and boiled at a gallop for an hour,
the served with an apology that it came so
late that there was not time 10 cook 1t
tender; when that same chicken, if thrown
where it could not possibly boil, would
have been tender, more juicy and higher
favored in less than the hour. We there
fore see that 1t Is never necessary to boil
meats to make them tender, but they must
be thrown into boiling water to coagulate
the albumen on th@surface and retain their
Juices. 1t Is difficult to persuade cooks of
This truth, but it is of great importance
that no trouble should be spared in trying
to remove their prejudices.-iGb5e Talk.
Hjnfs To Ho,tsekccpers.
COFFEE stains should he washed in clear,
luke-warm water before being put III the

IL making any sauce put tho flour and
butter in together and your sauce will not

4 LITTLE saltpetre or baking soda mixed
with water in which cut flowers are placed
will keep them fresh for a long while.
PURE butter melted produces a pure,
Iimpid, golden oil, and il retains the butter
flavor. Melt oleomargarine and the oil
smells like tallow, and a scum rises to the
surface.

washed before wearing at all, in water in
which has been put a little beefs gall,
